Undergraduate Internships
2020 - 2024
Throughout my undergraduate studies, I held multiple internships across the arts and culture sector—including galleries, museums, and non-profits—where I focused on digital marketing and communications. In these roles, I created engaging social media content, developed brand strategies, and worked to strengthen digital presence and audience connection.
These experiences not only gave me a strong foundation in visual storytelling, digital branding, and audience engagement, but also deepened my understanding of how to communicate with intention and authenticity. Working closely with arts organizations made me highly attuned to brand voice, community-centered messaging, and creating content that resonates with audiences.

Jane Lombard Gallery
From June 2022 through August 2022, I interned at the Jane Lombard Gallery, a TriBeCa art gallery defined by its global perspective and drive to foreground work that speaks to the complexities and nuances of contemporary life across cultures. Key responsibilities include: administrative and press support, content creation and analysis, and website management.
Social Media & Analysis
I developed and informed the gallery's social media strategy by conducting competitive market research to refine brand positioning and content direction.
When producing content, I researched short-form video trends and created a scalable content framework to showcase exhibitions and artists, strengthening the gallery's digital presence and increasing media visibility. Total efforts resulted in a 7% increase in followers and a 244% boost in engagement
Press & Administration
In preparation for exhibition openings, I wrote and edited press releases, exhibition checklists, and promotional copy. I also managed press inquiries and facilitated communication with gallery artists, supporting media outreach.
To keep the daily rhythm of the gallery, administrative responsibilities included answering calls, greeting visitors, managing and responding to emails, tracking inventory, record keeping, and processing invoices.
Website Management
In efforts to streamline and improve our website, I oversaw weekly website maintenance—updating our opportunities page, revising artist biographies, and monitoring online submissions. I was also responsible for writing and updating articles on our represented artists, helping to publicize their status and exhibitions to raise awareness of their work.
Asia Society
Asia Society is a global nonprofit organization that aims to educate the world about Asia through arts, culture, and political initiatives. From June 2023 through August 2023, I interned at Asia Society, with principal responsibilities focused on two core areas: content creation and audience research.
Social Media
I storyboarded, filmed, and edited short-form video content while also writing accompanying copy. I led the production of a variety of social content, including a "Day in the Life" intern series, exhibition highlights, and event recaps.
Total efforts resulted in a 2% subscriber growth
Audience Research
To expand reach, I researched emerging social platforms, analyzing audience behavior, platform viability, and growth opportunities to inform launch strategies. Through this work, I helped establish Asia Society's presence on TikTok and Threads, contributing to the organization's expansion across new digital channels.
Digital Art History Lab
The Washington University Department of Art History & Archaeology is within the School of Arts & Sciences. A small department, I served as the Recruitment & Engagement Coordinator, raising department awareness and major/minor declaration rates.
To increase engagement and awareness of the Art History & Archaeology department, I led grass-roots campus marketing initiatives, launched a coffee chat program, and executed a semester-long event series, overseeing end-to-end logistics, promotion, and live execution. From celebrating the 432nd birthday of Renaissance artist Michelangelo Caravaggio to end of year graduate celebrations, my work centered on raising awareness of our department and its offerings that held true to our departmental character. Through these combined efforts in social media, publicity, and events, my team achieved significant departmental growth, with major and minor declarations reached an all-time high.
Gephardt Institute
40%
Increase in newsletter subscribers from April 2023 to May 2024
7,000+
Total subscribers gained from April 2023 to May 2024
As a Marketing & Communications Assistant at the Gephardt Institute for Civic and Community Engagement—a non-profit that connects WashU students to civic opportunities—I supported the development of year-round campaigns, executed a weekly newsletter to 7,000+ subscribers, and maintained the organization’s website.
My primary focus was producing and distributing a weekly newsletter to over 7,000 subscribers. This newsletter served as a key communication channel, spotlighting internships, community events, and opportunities aligned with the Institute’s mission. In managing this channel, I oversaw the full content lifecycle—from researching and curating relevant stories, to writing and designing engaging copy, and coordinating scheduling and release—ensuring each edition resonated with our diverse audience. By consistently delivering timely, value-driven content (released every Friday!), I helped maintain strong subscriber engagement and foster a sense of community among students and local partners. After each release, I tracked open and click-through rates, reported findings to the team, and implemented improvements based on data insights to enhance reach and reader retention.
